Probably asked a few time already .

Im completely new to the apple ecosystem , maybe its time for me to jump ship.

Im not sure whether i should just get the 12 or 12 pro . The differences are quite small , i mean aside for the camera , other differences are discernable.

a rm 800 price difference is a lot. I could get myself an air pod pro .

So is the 12 pro worth it ? or should i just settle for a normal 12.

cool2.gif I believe, it's really up to your budget. Lidar scanner is really something up to personal preference. You can live without it. You do get better build quality. But after you slap a case on you can't see the difference (Unless you using clear case). After i saw the review on the battery on iPhone 12 Pro, i straight jump to the pro max.. it's Rm400 more from Pro but you get better value than the Rm800 you paid from standard to Pro.

I'm also like you trying out Apple Ecosystem, i think airpod and apple watch i can wait for later time. I do have my Jabra Elite and the spare Oneplus wireless bullets i got it free from 7Pro. not needed another wireless earphone.

For those who pre order from apple website ETA 13 Nov...not only u still no update on shipping yet,taiwan buyer also same so i think the stock alr in Malaysia just tomorrow only ship out and update...

For those ETA is after 13 Nov like 16 or 17 Nov but get update at shipping i think is because the first batch is limited unit,therefore after first batch,remaining is send from Singapore

Decided to go with spigen temporarily since the colour of the case that i initially wanted (ITSKINS) was not available in Malaysia for now. The spigen case doesn't have a premium feel.

For that price, I doubt it feels premium laugh.gif

Best casing so far which I saw is from Rimowa but Malaysia don't have it sad.gif

If you want a 3rd eye aka camera, Pro is the way to go.

If you don't, 12 is better.

FYI, I feel that Pro Max is the better option when it comes to camera. Pro is for those who wants the features 3rd lens of pro max minus the size.

And if I were you, I'd skip airpods or airpods pro. Old school earphones with cables are still better tongue.gif

Is the telephoto to die for ? I've never tried apples telephoto yet ? But I do notice that I kind of use a lot of the 2x telephoto zoom on my note 10.
Wont the regular 12 come with a 2x zoom too ? I dont mind losing the portrait 'blur' thing.

Yeah , ill probably just reuse my buds then biggrin.gif .

since you cant find anything that 12 pro have is needed for you,then 12 is enough already
the main different is camera lidar and ram

Yeah , i think the 12 would be fine . Its probably just FOMO with the 3rd eye tongue.gif

Pro max is probably too expensive and big for me , i'd feel comfortable spending below 5k incl accesories. Yeah , i should probably stave off from buying an apple watch and airpod for the mean time. Its just that im spoiled with my galaxy buds lol . Im still keeping the current phone as a place to keep stuff and watch shows.

Also the current reviews is kind of worrying , on how the battery doesnt last and how the 12 pro throttles on heavy loads. Is it something i should worry ? I dont bother playing any mobile games but i am a power user.

For throttle issue, i think currently only Genshin Impact got affected? Other application probably fine. Anyway, if you're still having your Android phone working, you can use that phone to play games. and keep your iPhone just for your daily stuff, this also help prolong the battery life. innocent.gif Apple never promote their phone for gaming

Similar boat but from iPhone 7+
I went for 12 + AirPods Pro combo and cheaper than 12 Pro
I was also in dilemma and in the end the high possibility of Pro Motion iPhone 13 or 14 2-3 yrs down the road (that force an upgrade) helps me decide to save the 800

Yeah , that too.

I think ill be selling the 12 if 13 gets a 120hz display .

But this question also comes up to mind . Wouldn't the 12 pro retain more value than the 12 ?

I'm seeing people sell their used 11 for cheap while used 11 pro still fetch quite a price. Senheng is still selling the 11 pro for 4399 yo icon_rolleyes.gif

devil.gif here's the list i wanna do with my iPhone
1) To find evidence that iPhone can't last 5 years.
2) Wanna see what so great about Apple Ecosystem
3) Friend told me iPhone got better sound quality, wanna check using Apple Music compare to spotify
4) Camera capture better picture and capture True/Close to real world color
5) Backup to iCloud is much better than Android's Gdrive.
6) Battery can last whole day.
